Shoulders (knees and toes, knees and toes...)

Remember all those beautiful flowers I made yesterday?  I sewed them all onto a little shoulder shape I made and can start making my final one now!

Then I decided to be a good friend and help one of the girls dye a dress for Hallowe'en (we're dead Hollywood stars, Marylin Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Rita Hayworth!) but it was polyester so wouldn't dye, we did mention this to her. I think I need new gloves for when I dye, mine don't seem to be doing so well...

(The flash took a lot of the mouldy/dead look out of my fingers, they looked like when Dumbledore had put on the cursed Horcrux ring!)

Art-ception!

Well, I hope you're ready to be confused with what I made today. It's a flower, but the petals are leaf shaped, with the pattern from a butterfly, in the colours of a peacock feather!
Maybe didn't turn out quite as I'd have liked, I might try something less confusing next time, but I still like it. It looks almost magic, like some blue flames you can carry round in a jar like Hermione made.

(The lower colour's a lot greener in real life, just didn't show too well in the photograph)
